Leaf–table runner

Mary sent me these pictures just this week. I thought I would share. My local guild, The Rippers, had a "Christmas Gift Challenge" where we were given a bag with one piece of fabric and an information slip with a member's name and preferences. We were to add fabrics to what they gave us and make a gift for them for our Christmas Party tomorrow. The fabric in the bag that I got is what I used for the background and backing on this table runner. If I were to make one without the restriction that the challenge placed on me, I would have made it either from hand dyes or batiks plus I would have made the leaves "fatter". Thanks again for the pattern! I enjoyed making the table runner and it was a perfect fit for the fabric that I was given to work with. Hugs,Mary Nice job Mary, and good combination of fabrics. Oh and by the way - nicely quilted Happy Quilting today.
